Moving Change and Innovation in Schools

School ethics is a form of applied ethics used to evaluate the ethical rules and principles within the school context, the diverse ethical issues that may arise within the learning milieu and specific duties that may apply to the persons connected to the school activities. Such ethics reflect the level to which the school is apparent at the odds of the non economic social values. In the modern world, most businesses and institutions use a normative approach which dictates when not to do (do) one or the other thing as it is the wrong (right) thing to do. With such approaches in place, the focus of ethics in business and institutions like school focus on moral (in) adequacy associated with leaders’ actions. Some examples include industrial accidents like the case of Chernobyl, environmental issues of Bhopal and the Golden era in Hong Kong.

One issue in our school that originally offered high performance among the students is the headperson and some members of the Parents Teachers Association who graduated in the 1970s and the 1980s. In his 30’s, our headmaster ranked among the people with the highest demand in the era of short supply and the promotion of education for the country. What is visible currently is that the head teacher is now no longer effective as he delegates most of his work to staff in their thirties and he needs not work hard like his position demands yet takes home a six figure salary or more each month (Tushman & O’Reilly 2002).


The head teacher has become a real threat to change like the embracement of the information technology era which is a great threat to the students and the nation in general since most schools have already embraced such change and enjoyed the benefits. The only way out of this turmoil is by carrying out a research on the effectiveness of technology in their learning environment and comparing the same with that of our school then forwarding that to the relevant authorities for action.
